Earlier this month, Dr Hannah had the opportunity to attend an intensive four-day equine lameness course, learning alongside equine veterinarians from Australia, New Zealand, and around the world.
The course consisted of a full day of lectures followed by three days of hands-on practical training, covering:
✔️ Diagnostic nerve blocks and intra-articular joint injections
✔️ Ultrasound of the lower limb tendons and ligaments
✔️ Advanced equine radiography techniques
✔️ Lameness investigation and diagnostic decision-making
At Southwest Equine, all of our veterinarians are committed to ongoing professional development, regularly attending continuing education opportunities and networking with colleagues to ensure we stay up to date with the latest advances in equine veterinary medicine. We look forward to bringing these new skills and ideas back to our clinic as we continue to provide our clients with the latest evidence-based approaches to diagnosing and treating lameness.
A huge thank you to The Equine Practice Company, Sue Dyson, and all of the instructors for delivering such an outstanding course. We look forward to putting what we’ve learned into practice and continuing to provide the best possible care for our beloved equine patients. 🐴
